The wavelike pattern of Wilkins’s shrug is enhanced by three colors of Ancient Arts Fibre Crafts’ hand-dyed 3-Ply Fingering Sock. Rectangular in shape, the piece is worked widthwise from the bottom up in slanting chevron lace and stripes, with armhole openings made by dividing the work into three sections that are worked separately for the length of the armhole and then rejoined.
